Atlanta Program Offers Hope to Families of Babies With Down Syndrome
A local Atlanta programme supporting families of babies with Down syndrome was recently highlighted on ATL Live. The show marked World Down Syndrome Day early by discussing how volunteers provide welcome baskets and emotional support to new parents. Two of those volunteers shared their own personal ties to the condition during the broadcast.
Jack's Basket delivers welcome boxes and resources to families in the Atlanta area after a Down syndrome diagnosis. Volunteers like Mya Prowell and Bea Treat help assemble and distribute the baskets to new parents.
Both women spoke on *ATL Live* about their connections to Down syndrome. Their conversation came ahead of World Down Syndrome Day, focusing on the importance of community support for families receiving the diagnosis.
The programme continues to offer practical and emotional help to Atlanta families. Volunteers ensure parents receive welcome baskets and guidance during a significant moment. The ATL Live segment brought wider attention to their work.
